LinkedIn continues to raise the interest of players and enthusiasts in the EdTech space. After the acquisition of content company Lynda, now LinkedIn Learning, a privileged position in the lifelong learning and professional development serves as the starting point of ambitious, if also cautious, moves.
The latest LinkedIn Learning announcement mirrors that of similar content companies, including Open Educational Resources (OER) providers. Beginning with up-and-coming LMS like Degreed, Digital Chalk, Cornerstone OnDemand, and Docebo, LinkedIn Learning will now let users access their vast repository, made mostly of video lessons.
This will allow instructors to use the tracking and reporting tools of the LMS, if they are available, to measure engagement of Learning materials. The announcement also outlays plans for modular tracks and “bespoke learning pathways” by mid-2018. To date, it is unclear if Learning will create the pathways or if organizations will have the tools to build them for themselves.
